🎙️ The Socially Distant Sports Bar – Episode 262: Oh My God, He’s 52!
Elis James (Elis & John, Oh What A Time), Mike Bubbins (Mammoth), and Steff Garrero return for another week of vintage sporting clips, niche nostalgia, and the usual barely-relevant chaos.
This week there’s Gen Z player confusion, outrageous tries, rally car legends, and Baker & Kelly.
"Like a sports podcast, if the sport was optional."
